  • a person skilled in the field of the present invention will understand the present invention without difficulties from the explanation thereof without illustration of such auxiliary construction.
  • a flush valve can be connected to the toilet 16.
  • the present invention is explained on the grounds that a hot water supply device is used as a cleaning water supplying source.
  • the present invention is not restricted by such cleaning water supplying source.
  • the person who initially uses the toilet will have to prevent the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66 including the cleaning water nozzle tip 64 being polluted by the evacuation and place it in such a state that supply of cleaning water is shut off. To do so, the user downwardly shifts the lever 54 in the sitting state on the toilet 16 and then shifts the horizontal guide gate 52 formed at the front surface of the cover 46 to the lower position of the inwardly arched guide gate 50 (See the dot line portion of the lever 54 in Fig. 2, and Fig. 3).
  • the lever 54 herein is restrictedly shifted by the guide gates 48, 50, 52 of the cover 46 mounted at the vertical portion 12 of the bracket 14, and as the rear end of the lever 54 is fixed to the upper end of the rotating bracket 42 of the rotative manipulating plate 32 which the fitting plate portion 34 was fixedly engaged with the valve stem 30 of the valve assembly 28, and the rotating bracket 42 is rotatively mounted on the rotative manipulating plate 32 along the shaft 44, the lever 54 actually rotates centering around the shaft 44 while the lever in the horizontal guide gate 52 of the cover 46 is guidably and horizontally shifted.
  • the reciprocating guide rod 80 is shifted to the left and by shifting the engaging means 86 mounted on the right side end of the reciprocating guide rod 80 to the left, the rotating guide member 73 engaged with the U-shaped recess 84 of the engaging means 86 by means of the shaft pin 74 rotates counterclockwise from the plane.
  • the rotating guide member 73 comprises a vertical plate 70 and a horizontal plate 72 in which the shaft pin 74 is mounted, and the nozzle block 62 which the lower end of the vertical plate 70 is engaged with the lower end of the cleaning water supplying tube 56 through the rotating joint 60 rotates counterclockwise. Consequently, the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66 mounted on the rotating joint 60 rotates counterclockwise so that the upward nozzle tip 64 is shifted to the one side portion of the toilet bowl 18 (See the dot line portion of Fig. 2, and Fig. 3).
  • Such position of the upward nozzle tip 64 is the unusable position.
  • the lever is in the downward position.
  • the valve assembly 28 is in such a state that supply of cleaning water is shut off clockwise to the valve stem 30.
  • the lever 54 which is in the downward position should be pulled upwardly, i.e., to the upper side of the inwardly arched guide gate 50.
  • the fitting plate portion 34 of the rotative manipulating plate 32 rotates counterclockwise from the left direction of the drawing so as to open the valve assembly 28 through the valve stem 30 engaged with the fitting plate portion 34.
  • the U-shaped recess 38 is shifted along the downwardly arched extension rod 82 of the reciprocating guide rod 80 and thus the position of the reciprocating guide rod 80 is not changed.
  • hot cleaning water is supplied by the cleaning water supplying source, a water heater to the inlet pipe 24 of the valve assembly 28, so as to force out the cooling cleaning water remaining in the outlet pipe 26 of the valve assembly 28, the connection hose (not shown) connecting the outlet pipe 26 with the cleaning water supply fine pipe 68, the cleaning water supply fine pipe 68, the cleaning water supplying tube 56 and the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66, and at the same time, hot cleaning water is ejected to the upward nozzle tip 64 of the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66 through the aforesaid course.
  • the lever 54 is shifted to the lower side of the inwardly arched guide gate 50 of the cover 46, and then shifted from the lower side of the horizontal guide gate to the outside (in such a state that supply of cleaning water is shut off).
  • the lever 54 is shifted upwardly. Namely, by shifting the lever 54 to the upper side of the outwardly arched guide gate 48, the fitting plate portion 34 of the rotative manipulating plate 32 engaged with the lever 54 is rotated counterclockwise from the left, so as to open the valve assembly 28 again, supply hot cleaning water through the cleaning nozzle pipe 66 and eject the hot cleaning water through the upward nozzle tip 64.
  • the toilet user's private parts are cleaned by cleaning water being ejected from the upward nozzle tip 64.
  • valve assembly 28 should be closed by shifting the lever 54 to the lower side, and the upward nozzle tip 64 should be shifted to the unusable position, one side portion of the toilet bowl 18 by shifting the lever 54 to the right.
  • Fig. 7 illustrates the second example of the present invention in which cold water and hot water can be selectively supplied to the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66.
  • valve assembly 28' for the selective supply of cold water and hot water comprising a cold water inlet pipe 24', a hot water inlet pipe 24" and an outlet pipe 26' in the middle is used instead of the valve assembly 28 used in the first example, and that a downwardly arched guide gate 48'which the lever 54 is guided to the lower side is formed, so as to supply cold water from the cover 46 to the lower side of the outwardly arched guide gate 48.
  • the other construction parts are identical to those of the first example. Accordingly, the part which are identical to those of the first example was shown in the identical symbolic number.
  • the second example can be used by connecting the cold water inlet pipe with the cold water supplying source (not shown), connecting the hot water supplying source with the hot water inlet pipe 24", and connecting the outlet pipe 26' in the middle with the cleaning water supply fine pipe 68 extended to the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66. Operation for the supply of hot water is identical to that for the first example.
  • cold water can be supplied to the cleaning water nozzle pipe 66 through which the cold water inlet pipe 24' of the valve assembly 28' is connected with the outlet pipe 26', by shifting the lever 54 to the left of the horizontal guide gate 52 (seen from the drawing) and shifting toward the downwardly arched guide gate 48'.
